NHL’s second-highest scoring team is catching fire from coach Todd McLellan for allowing the most goals in the league after a brutal 6-4 loss to Winnipeg
Being the NHL’s second-highest scoring team sounds more than appealing, unless it also entails giving up five more goals than any other club in the league.
“Thirty of us, because I’m including us as coaches, we’ve got to decide again, and I’ve been saying this for 10 games. Twelve percent of our schedule is gone and we still don’t know how we want to play,” Coach Todd McLellan said. “I would think the experiment of run-and-gun that we’re trying to play, like, how much more evidence do we need that it doesn’t work?”
“Our only thought process on the power play is offense. There’s time when there’s risk involved in it, but we don’t play risk at all, we just assume everything’s going to work out fine and it comes back the other way, three times in two power plays,” McLellan said, pointing to such miscues as a major reason the Kings were battling for 60 minutes rather than slamming the door on Winnipeg early.
McLellan had said after Tuesday’s 4-2 victory over Tampa Bay that it would be important for the Kings to continue to close space, hunt the puck and otherwise be aggressors defensively. Though Winnipeg did not have the puck often, the Jets managed to score a power-play goal and produce efficiently with the limited offensive zone they mustered.
